Gee, it's been awhile since I've posted on my blog. I do have a good excuse, though. I had a bone fusion on my right thumb November 8th and the surgery slowed my writing considerbly. I have to hit the space bar with my pointer finger. Unfortunately, when I aim for the m or n, I often hit the space bar and have to back up. Hopefully the pins will come out on December 15th. and I won't have to wear the brace any longer.

Today I'd like to share the cover and a blurb for my novella time travel romance, A Way Back, coming out with Champagne Books in January. I'm thrilled with the cover. Trisha FitzGerald is the artist. Thank you, Trisha!

In the 1930s oil fields of Texas, a woman from the future finds new purpose as she helps a banker rebuild his financial empire.

Amber Mathis, a Wall Street investment banker, returns to her office after burying her mother. Distraught, tired of the rat race, she's determined to make a career change. In the elevator she falls and rises to find herself in a vintage lift. The date is February 25, 1930, and a man stands on the window ledge ready to jump.

Wellman Hathaway, owner and CEO of Hathaway Bank in New York struggles to pay his depositors half their losses. A woman claiming to be from 2010 appears in his office and involves him in a scheme that forces them into marriage. With Amber's knowledge of the financial history of the 1930s, they travel to the oil fields of Texas to recoup Wellman's funds.

Two people from different centuries are thrown together to survive a difficult time. Will they find more than A Way Back to prosperity?

A Way Back will be out in ebook format sometime in early January 2011. I hope you will buy a copy and enjoy reading it as much as I loved writing it.
